NAT6970: Natural RPC initialization failed. RPC not available.

Text
Natural RPC initialization failed. RPC not available.
Explanation
This error message is preceded by an initialization error message.
On the client side, the following features are not available:
- execution of a remote CALLNAT,
- SYSRPC functions SM, XC and PM,
- local use of conversations and context variables.
On the server side, the termination of the Natural RPC server session
is enforced by an implicit ITERM=ON.
Action
Check the previous initialization error.

NAT6971: Connection error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Connection error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: No transport layer.
        2: Connection timed out.
        3: Conversation timed out.
        4: No space for working storage of broker stub.
           Increase Natural thread or region size by 35 KB.

        7: Node not active.
        8: Server not active.
        9: Error from transport layer; issue RPCERR for details.
After the reason, the message displays the server/node in question.
With AUTORPC=ON this error may also occur instead of a local NAT0082
error on the client side.
Action
Proceed depending on above reason.

NAT6972: Directory error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Directory error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
A directory error has occurred. Possible reasons are:
1 - No directory.
2 - Invalid directory.
3 - No space to load directory. Increase the RPC size.
4 - No server found in service directory for the subprogram/library
    whose names are indicated in the error message.
5 - Recursive RPC with the two subprograms whose names are
    indicated in the error message.

NAT6973: Conversation error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Conversation error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: Too many subprograms for OPEN CONVERSATION.
        2: Invalid subprogram name.
        3: RPC size overflow. Increase RPC size.
        4: Mixed local/remote CALLNAT within one conversation (program).
           It is not possible to execute subprograms that are members
           of one conversation partially remote and local.
        5: Recursive conversation. It is not possible to execute a
           subprogram that is a member of a conversation while you
           are executing a subprogram within that conversation.
        6: Conversation to be closed not found.
        7: Conversation ID to be closed is not valid.
        8: CLOSE CONVERSATION executed inside a local conversation.
           It is not possible to close a conversation while you are
           executing a subprogram within that conversation.
Action
           executing a subprogram within that conversation.
Proceed depending on above reason.

NAT6974: Conversion error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Conversion error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.
Explanation
Reason: 1: Variables of type CONTROL and HANDLE and extensible lower
           bounds in X-arrays not supported.
        2: Error converting to external format of parameter :3:.
        3: Error converting to internal format of parameter :3:.
        4: No space for conversion to internal format of parameter :3:.
           Increase MAXBUFF on :1: side.
        5: No space for conversion to external format of parameter :3:.
           Increase MAXBUFF on :1: side.
        6: Format buffer error for parameter :3:.
        7: No space. Increase region/thread size (MF) or USIZE (LUW).
        8: No MAXBUFF defined on client side, but RPC is used.
       10: AD=M (inout) or AD=A (in) parameter used with reliable RPC.
       11: The used interface object does not support reliable RPC.
           Regenerate interface object with latest Natural version.
Action
           Regenerate interface object with latest Natural version.
Proceed depending on above reason.

NAT6975: Security error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Security error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: Logon data required by the Natural RPC server.
        2: Invalid logon data received by the Natural RPC server.
           After the reason, diagnostic information is indicated
           in the message.
        3: Invalid offset to the logon data in the RPC meta data.
        4: Impersonation failed for the user indicated in the message.
           The external security system has rejected the logon attempt
           of the user. The reason is shown in the Natural RPC server
           trace and in the system log of the server.
Action
Reason: 1:   Pass logon data from the client to the Natural RPC server.
        2,3: Contact Software AG support.
        4:   Pass logon data that is valid for your security system.

NAT6976: Context error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
Context error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 1: Context size overflow.
           The storage for the variables of the DEFINE DATA CONTEXT
           statement could not be allocated.
           On mainframe computers, the CONTEXT buffer could not be
           allocated or increased. This is either caused by storage
           restrictions of the operating or TP system, or by Natural
           environment constraints (Natural profile parameter OVSIZE,
           NATCONFG table entry NTBUFID for CONTEXT buffer).
           On Windows and Linux systems, the USIZE buffer was not large
           enough to fulfil the storage request.
        2: Conflict in format/length definition of a variable.
           The context variable whose name is shown in the error message
           was defined in a previous program with a different
           format/length.
Action
           format/length.
Reason: 1: Decrease number of context variables and/or number of
           concurrent conversations, or remove storage contraints.
        2: Correct format/length of context variable.

NAT6977: EntireX RPC error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
EntireX RPC error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
An EntireX RPC error has occurred.
The reason shows the EntireX RPC error number, optionally followed by
additional diagnostic information.
This error can only occur if a Natural client is communicating with an
EntireX RPC server.
Action
Refer to the EntireX Communicator messages and codes.

NAT6978: RPC protocol error on :1:, reason :2: :3:.

Text
RPC protocol error on ..., reason ... ....
Explanation
Reason: 2: The Server does not support the RPC protocol version used by
           the RPC client.
           Or:
           The client does not support the RPC protocol version used by
           the client interface object (stub subprogram).
           After the reason, the unsupported version is shown
           in the message.
        3: The RPC protocol header or RPC format buffer is invalid.
           After the reason, the corresponding EntireX error number is
           shown in the message. In the case of format buffer errors,
           the erroneous element is appended to the error number.
Action
Use the correct RPC protocol version.
Refer to the EntireX messages.

NAT6979: Premature termination of a remote CALLNAT.

Text
Premature termination of a remote CALLNAT.
Explanation
The remote execution of a CALLNAT was prematurely terminated on the
server side and all data of the parameter area were lost. The reason
for this may be the use of one of the following Natural statements:
- STOP
- FETCH
- ESCAPE BOTTOM outside of a processing loop
- RUN
- TERMINATE
Note: These statements will be disabled in a remotely executed CALLNAT
in one of the next Natural versions.
Action
Do not use one of the listed statements in a remotely executed CALLNAT.
